Your positive attitude, thoughtful comments, clear insights, and delicious WFO bakes are (and will always be) treasured by most of us. You have shared with us a tremendous gift that will continue to inspire, help, & make mouths water throughout the Forno Bravo family.

I hope that this family will keep your two Karangi Kitchen threads on the first page of the Regional Australia forum with our reply/comments (as we are attempting to keep Lburou's "A Newbie's survey..treasures..." thread on the first page of the Newbie Forum).

Thank you Doug...it's been terrific and I know you'll continue to enjoy the great life & life style you've built.

Sorry to hear that KD . The barrier between constructive criticism and sniping can sometimes become blurred. I sincerely hope that after some time with only a very short sabbatical that you overcome this temporary burnout and return home with your wisdom and in sight.

Just went into Doug’s blog to study up…now that my hearth is finally poured. Was very concerned when I found that his account has been removed. I hope him and his family are OK! He’ll be sorely missed.
